DO NOT USE THOSES HEADLIGHTS ! They're not only illegal but have are extremely blinding to everybody else ! There is plenty of DOT compliant LED sealed beam with a proper beam pattern that doesn't blind oncoming drivers, like Philips, Sylvania, TruckLite, Morimoto, JW Speaker...
Honestly if you want good 5x7 inch or 7 inch round or any of the sealed beam replacement LED headlights, go with a known brand that has enough money to do good RnD. Like Holley with their new retrobrights or whatever they call them. They’re pricey but I put them on my 1986 Toyota Pickup/Hilux RV and it is nearly as bright as my Corolla which has a retrofit with $500 BI-LED projectors. They’re the NHK BI LED With the Laser Highbeam. Now obviously the retrofitted projectors have a better highbeam with the laser assist. But the retro brights are great upgrades in low beam and high beam! Way brighter than any of the cheap knock offs LED 5x7’s. Also the Morimoto sealed 7’a and all their sealed beam replacements are pretty damn great too! But there is also the tried and true Jw Speaker LED Headlights I that a lot of truckers are probably familiar with. Especially with their automatic heating on their models equipped with the heaters to de-ICE them and keep them functioning at their brightest even in snowing and freezing rain conditions. To be clear though most of the headlights I mentioned are not that cheap. They’re not great if you dont have a lot to spend. But if that’s something you’re worried about you can always look for the hella 5x7’s that are not sealed. So you can swap out the bulb. My neighbor did this and used a Morimoto 2 stroke 3.0 H4 LED bulb and his cutoff was as sharp as mine with my Holley Retrobrights with the Morimoto LED’s. Now I would say my overall brightness and light distribution was better but not by all that much. And I went for the test drive with him at night, also compared them to my RV’s retrobrights and it’s honestly a great compromise. And I believe with those he was able to be all in at $400 for the bulbs and housings.
For the 5X7 sealed beams I would only recommend Holley Retro Brite, Philips, or Truck Lite. There expensive but the results are amazing from the videos I've seen on CZcams..
You watched so HeadlightRevolution vids I see... there advice isn't quite as in line with my real life experience as their confidence would make you think. It's almost like they only do lab tests but not real life tests.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND/ BESTZHEYU 7x6 5x7 LED Headlights Compatible with XJ Wrangler YJ GMC Dodge Ram W250 D350 Ramcharger Chevy S10 LED Headlights with DRL and Turn Signal Lights
Morimoto mini h1 retrofit on a 7x6 housing lasted me over 12 YEARS!! But paid about 400-500. Well worth it!only had to replace it only because I left it out with it a bulb in it and soaked up all the rain… so looking for a cheaper alternative for now
You said it yourself, they are bad. Just a tip, change the title of your video to not use upgrade, but downgrade. Amazon should stop selling these junkers!
These are flashlights not headlights! Headlights have a proper beam pattern, these piece of garbage just output a thick cloud of light which is useless.
You put those lights upside down

@@AutoDad that's a really good choice.

I installed these tonight, toyota, negative switching, made the circuit to correct, absolute rubbish.
Don't buy.
A honest video
I like the new retrobrights, expensive but overall great headlights
They're upside down. I have these on my truck. They're ok, imo. High beam is lacking
Aren't those multi row round LEDs the worst ones on on market?
They are the leasg bright led sealed beans. I got projector sealed led to replace these multi row less bright led sealed beams!
I had a pair and didn't work with my truck. worked great only on High beams :(
You can't expect too much for $40
It’s what to expect when you buy lights for 40 bucks

Good point I just changed it
Ebay full of them too.
@@roostercockburn1665 and they are just as crappy
Dont use those ones there are much better options most even drl and turn signal built in there the ones to go with as they are better
Short distance not worth it then😞😞
4 sided let's are the worst,absolute rubbish! Try morimoto 2 stroke 3.0 instead.
